The Chinese Coal Industry : An Economic History Hardback
by Elspeth Thomson
Part of the Routledge Studies on the Chinese Economy series
Hardback
Description
The coal industry has been and continues to be of critical importance for China's economic modernization.
With its huge labour force, country-wide infrastructure, and vital strategic importance for the economy, the industry presents special problems for reformers, and epitomises the problems of reform in the state industrial sector as a whole.
This book examines the changes in the structure and operation of the Chinese coal industry from the mid-19th century to the present, concentrating on the years of reform.
Although the focus is on the economics of the industry, the book also provides many insights into China's socio-political development.
